Public bug reported:
evolution-data-server-uoa 3.8.3-0ubuntu4 provides several different
services and a single icon isn't sufficient to represent all of them.
They don't want to use the evolution icon since EDS is more than just
Evolution (it's also used by Thunderbird, GNOME Contacts, etc.). This
was discussed at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/701964
Services provided by eds-uoa
---------------------------------------
google-calendar.service
google-contacts.service
google-gmail.service
yahoo-calendar.service
yahoo-mail.service
Currently, it appears that UOA only looks at the .desktop for an icon but
evolution-data-server-uoa.desktop doesn't have an icon. However,
/usr/share/accounts/services/google-calendar.service sets <type>calendar</type>
/usr/share/accounts/service_types/calendar.service-type sets
<icon>x-office-calendar</icon>
I believe the current behavior for settings the service icon is something like:
1. Use the .desktop icon
2. If not set, don't show an icon at all. This makes the eds services look out
of place.
Suggested improved behavior
1. Use an icon in the /services/*.service
2. If not set, fallback to the .desktop icon
3. If not set, fallback to the icon set by the corresponding
service_types/*.service_type
4. Set a generic icon
